New York Muslims Blame Donald Trump for Imam Shooting
Breitbart.com ^ | 13 Aug 2016 | Mona Salama

Queens, New York– An imam and his associate were killed Saturday in Queens, NY, shortly after leaving the mosque where they were saying their afternoon prayers. The victims were identified by the NYPD as Imam Maulama Akonjee, 55 and Thara Uddin, 65. Both men were shot at close range in the head, just a block away from the mosque shortly before 2pm. The Imam was pronounced dead at the scene, while Uddin died four hours later at Jamaica Hospital.

The shooter, according to Deputy Inspector Henry Sautner from the 106th precinct, remains at large. According to Sautner, the shooter is a “male with medium complexion dressed in a dark polo shirt and shorts.” The authorities added that the motive has not been determined, but community members, predominantly Muslims, are calling the crime a hate crime. Most blame the shooting on GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump and former NYC Mayor Rudy Giuliani.

“That’s not what America is about,” Khairul Islam, 33, a local resident told the Daily News. “We blame Donald Trump for this. Trump and his drama has created Islamophobia.”

Another Imam, whose name is unknown at the moment, also blamed the real estate mogul and former NYC mayor for the shooting. “For those in leadership like Trump and Mr. Giuliani, and other members of other institutions that project Islam and Muslims as the enemy, this is the end result of their wickedness,” the Imam said at a gathering of Muslims protesting the shooting.

Other Muslim gatherings were chanting “This is Donald Trump’s fault,” and “Muslim hate crime.”

It’s too bad Breitbart’s site is impossible to read.

Try installing AdBlock. It’s free and works. None of the incessant pop up malarkey. I was unable to read Breitbart site before installing. No problem now.

Was it a “white” Hispanic. After all don’t all non-white Americans live in peace and harmony with each other. That’s what the Dems and the MSM tell us.

If Trump can be blamed for this, can imams be blamed for inciting terrorists based on what they preach in a mosque? Somehow I don’t think muslims want to go there.

Witnesses described the shooter as having a medium complexion, possibly hispanic.

Could it be a Christian from the Middle East who’s family is getting slaughtered by ISIS/Jihadis?

Violence is often a case of you reap what you sow. Muslims create a lot of ill will with the tenets of the religion which advocate violence against members of all other religions.

One of the highest priorities of the Muslim Brotherhood, is to gain control of the mosques. It is a widespread pattern (now virtually worldwide) of islamists intimidating and violently purging anyone who does not pull the islamist party line.

That is another obvious pattern that the media twists itself into knots not to see, or to let the public see.

They can say Trump is to blame for this attack on a couple of Moslems, but can find no relationship whatsoever of 9/11 and a long list of other atrocities to Islam, not to mention fourteen centuries of history.

Muzzards have learned democrat party methods real well. No wonder dems have taken them in as a solid voting and donation block, and given them immunity from paying the consequences of their actions.

The guy clearly looks like a Trump supporter... And not a run-of-the-mill criminal....

Isn't this approximately how Seth Rich was killed? Shot in the head at close range?

...and Riddle me this, Batman.

After Beslan, after Paris, after Nice, after Orlando, after San Bernardino... (to say nothing of 9-11 or Fort Hood or the Boston Marathon)

Why should I give a flying pig about this? This is not your country, no matter how many politicians you've bought with Saudi oil money.

Since they iman came from Bangadesh maybe:
From
http://research.omicsgroup.org/index.php/M._A._G._Osmani

General Muhammad Ataul Gani Osmani

1 September 1918– 16 February 1984), also known as Bongobir (the Hero of Bengal), was a Bengali military officer who was the Commander-in-Chief of the Mukti Bahini during the Bangladesh Liberation War in 1971.

Osmani had a career spanning three decades, beginning with service in the British Indian Army in 1939. He fought in Burma during World War II and served in the Pakistan Army until 1967. He was appointed the head of the Bengali armed resistance in 1971 by the Provisional Government of Bangladesh. He is regarded as the founding leader of the Bangladesh Armed Forces.

Osmani joined politics in independent Bangladesh. He served as a Member of Parliament and Cabinet minister in the government of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman. He resigned from the government after opposing the creation the one party state of BAKSAL. Osmani is also credited for introducing Chol Chol Chol written by Kazi Nazrul Islam as the national military anthem.


Opens up another aspect.

Islam is anti-Christian.

It remains to be seen if it provides anti-Christ.

The news here was very clear that the shooter wasn’t “white”; the complexion described is “medium”...

I am still baffled as to how any population can go thru 9-11 and maintain such reverence for muslims.

Before the towers had even crashed to the ground the Left decided they had found their new best friends forever.

“White” these days is anyone with a clean haircut and a job who has “sold out their race” by being responsible.

Actual skin color really doesn’t matter, it is HOW one acts.
